We headed to the country on Easter. I tried so hard to get some quick pics of my sweet handsome little boys. It didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped, but I was able to get a couple that I liked. 
Mama has been doing a lot of work in the country. She had a nice size storage building built, painted the well house, built a big pole barn, had trees cut down, built a fence..... The list goes on. The place looked totally different, but it was SO nice.
A good bit of the family came, and we ate a yummy lunch. Patton LOVED the orange fluff:)
The kids played for a little while before the egg hunt. Cary got ready to take the children on a Gator ride, only to find out the back tire was flat. So they took a walk while we hid the eggs. 
Here is the best shot that I got before the hunt. It is bad, but it'll have to do this year....
Ready. Set. Hunt.
Here they are working hard to count the eggs.
Micah WON with 70 eggs! I'm sure that he won because there were only 6 children who hunted in the 5 and under hunt. Two of which were Gavin and Silas who don't even walk, and one Patton.... He was excited none the less, but I tried to let him know it will be A LOT harder next year when he has to hunt with the big kids :)
We went to the cool tree and took a couple pics, 
played a ball game with a walking stick and a football and took a nice Gator ride in Ginny's Gator before calling it a day. I am so thankful for wonderful family and a beautiful day!
Getting the yard ready for an Easter egg hunt is quite a job in the country. Mama took off the whole week to make sure that everything was ready. The Rosbury clan planned to go help work on Monday. I let Mama know that our schedule was still up in the air. Micah woke up bright and early (5:30) Monday morning, asking to go to the country. I went back and forth, but decided that since we didn't have anything important to do at home, we should go. We worked hard all day long. Aiden and I put leaves into the gator and hauled them into the woods. Before the day was over Aiden had become an expert gator driver :) Micah and Patton enjoyed playing with their cousins. Micah also loved watching the men work. Mr. Ed got a kick out of Micah and even said he'd love to take Micah home with him! LOL
I found a toad. The kids had a great time with him.
I found a snake, but we kept our distance.
Christian was going to cut the grass, but burned his fingers on the lawn mower, so I helped Ginny mow the orchard. Meanwhile Daphne rocked sweet Patton to sleep..... The day ended with hotdogs and smores (I skipped) Both boys crashed as soon as we hit the pavement. I slept good that night.
Tuesday morning jut a few minutes after I woke up Mama texted me to let me know the concrete truck was coming. I knew Micah wanted to see the concrete truck REALLY bad, so morning number 5 of Spring BREAK, we got up early and headed out the door, back to the country:)
We got there Just in Time to see the cement truck come down the driveway. Micah talked to Mr. Ed to make sure that everything would go smoothly:)
And then watched in awe and the concrete came, and the workers did their jobs.
At one point Micah said "Mama, this is the Best day ever!" I asked him why and he said "because I got to the the cement truck, and watch the cement be poured." Oh, the little things..... I thought a beach trip might be nice, but if this is all sweet Micah needs to be happy, we're doing okay :)
Micah loved watching the men use all of their different tools to finish the slab, but was super excited when Mama told him that he could put his hand prints in the finished product! They tried to be extra careful. And it turned our great!
Wednesday morning we planned to meet Sarah and Noah at the Suwanee Fountains. Ater a quick stop by the accountant's we headed that way. When we got there we were the only ones there. It was perfect. Patton was just exploring when Micah tried to put him into the water..... That ruined it for P. He wanted nothing to do with the water for a long time after that. Patton played in the grass
While Micah played in the water.
And of course you have to stop playing to watch a train go by.
And of course, Micah has to figure out what the worker is doing....
Patton did finally get Close to the water.
Soon it began to get crowded and Micah couldn't stop talking about food, so we decided to leave.We had a nice lunch outside and had a a great time with our friends :)
We have been SO busy since the Easter egg hunt last Wednesday. I just realized today, that Micah hasn't taken a nap since last then! He has been dealing well, but I can just tell that he really needs to catch up on some good sleep:) Last Thursday was Stacy's Birthday. The BIG 34. He had the day off and we got the air in the Explorer fixed and he racked up on free food. Stacy's parents came over for a visit. We had plans to go to the country on Friday, it was the first day of Micah's Spring Break. Stacy was happy that he was off so that he could go too. He finished putting down floors in a closet and in the laundry room. I blew leaves. A lot of leaves. Micah made friends with all of the men who have been working for Mama and even got to help one of the men drive a mini trackhoe. 
Micah was in Heaven. He LOVES tractors, big trucks, pretty much all work equipment. Even sweet P wanted to help :) 
We even took a quick trip to the creek to cool our toes:)
We stayed in the country until after 7. Patton didn't make it to the end of the driveway before crashing, Micah was about 15 minutes behind him. They played SO hard. I love those country boys.
Saturday was full of moonwalks. We had one at a church that was hosting a BBQ/ Easter egg hunt/ garage sale. Micah was so excited. I am not a big yard sale person myself. I would probably love it, but I just don't have time. Plus, Most yard sales take place during the busiest moonwalk seasons..... Micah loved looking at all of the stuff and even brought some home.
Sunday we celebrated Stacy. He racked up on giftcards. 
By the time we came home, it was way to late to have Micah lay down, so outside we went. Take a look at how big these boys are getting.....
The party was beach themed and filled with crafts and games. 
A yummy cake, presents, and a pinata.
I just love this picture..... I just wish it was clearer.
I am so glad that I met Halle's mom this year. She is super nice, and I really like her. I am also so glad that I saw and was able to talk to another mom at the party. I've known Amie for a LONG time and was able to talk to her for a good while about education and my fears about next year. She made me feel a lot better and actually confirmed to me that MIcah will be going to a good school. Although I am still nervous, I feel a lot better about it after talking to her.
